*1 Pre-MBA system: A system that allows those considering advancing to Globis University Graduate School of Management to take basic subjects of the graduate school one by one before enrollment.
*2 Technovate: A coined word combining technology and innovation.
Taiwan, where the base will be established, is a crucial hub supporting Asia's growth, backed by a concentration of advanced industries such as AI and semiconductors. The real GDP growth rate for 2025 is projected to be 4.45%*3, with steady growth expected to continue. Furthermore, driven by AI demand and the spread of emerging technologies, investment in advanced processes and high-value-added fields is expanding, and competitiveness in the advanced semiconductor sector is strengthening. Taiwan also has deep human and economic exchanges with Japan, possessing high affinity in human resource development and business. Given this environment, Globis will establish a new base in Taiwan to meet local leader development needs and accelerate the expansion of Globis University Graduate School of Management's English MBA program and Globis Corporation's corporate training services.

The establishment of GLOBIS Taiwan is an initiative that strongly promotes Globis's global expansion towards "the world's No.1 MBA in the technovate era," providing world-class learning to Taiwanese business leaders. With the high affinity between Japan and Taiwan, it will also serve as a human resource development hub connecting the two regions.
GLOBIS Taiwan plans to open Pre-MBA classes in July 2026, adopting a hybrid format that incorporates both in-person and online live classes. Through the Pre-MBA, participants can acquire the business skills necessary for success in a highly competitive global environment. In addition to individual English MBA programs and corporate training for corporations, it will also host networking events, leadership seminars, and individual consultations, developing into a hub for management talent development in Taiwan.
Credits acquired through GLOBIS Taiwan's Pre-MBA will be recognized as completion requirements for Globis University Graduate School of Management. The university's English MBA program has produced over 1,000 graduates from 86 countries since its launch in 2009.
On April 23rd, the first commemorative event for GLOBIS Taiwan was held. Representative Yoshito Hori visited the site and spoke on the theme "The Ideal Leader for the Global Era as Seen from Davos Conference 2026," sharing his thoughts on the establishment of the Taiwan base and the outlook for future business leaders.

On the day, major Japanese and global companies with bases in Taiwan participated, including Omron, Adastria, Suntory Wellness, Hoshizaki, Brother Industries, Yamaha, Mynavi, Nagase & Co., JR East Taiwan Commercial Development, and from the financial industry, Mitsubishi UFJ Bank and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, making the event a great success.
